I haven't received it yet :) I chose it because it is significantly
cheaper and is officially supported (though the BusLogic cards appear to
have equally good support, and if I weren't such a cheapskate I would have
bought a BusLogic).
I'll post back about how it works once I've received it and have it in
use.
(First part I've already done -- built a kernel with the new Advansys
drivers which support that card, no problems there; now I need to put
that kernel on a boot disk).
